The Mute, is a 1980 Egyptian movie, directed by Ahmed El-Sabawy, and starring Mahmoud Yassin, Madiha Kamel, Salah Nazmi. with a runtime of 95 minutes.
The Mute is an Egyptian drama centred on Ahmed, an engineer whose life is irrevocably altered when he inadvertently causes the death of his colleague Hossam. The psychological shock of that moment robs Ahmed of his ability to speak — a silence that becomes both his punishment and his prison. In this vulnerable state he meets Aida, a woman who sees past his muteness and falls for the person behind it. The two plan to marry, but Aida's father stands firmly in opposition. The film uses Ahmed's enforced silence as both a dramatic and metaphorical canvas, exploring guilt, grief, and love's capacity to reach across the barriers that trauma erects.
